Graham's lawyers say she pushed Johnson in self defense. Now a friend of Johnson's testified he turned down a golf outing on the day of his death because "Jordan said she has a surprise for me."

Day two of the newlywed murder trial: A rare show of emotion by Jordan Graham

Jordan Graham pushed her husband while they were at Glacier National Park and he fell off a cliff. Her lawyers say she pushed him in self defense and that his death was an accident. The prosecution argues it was murder. One problem for the defense is that initially, Graham lied about what happened and went to pretty dramatic lengths to cover her tracks. Those lies took center stage in court today. Kyung Lah has the latest, and explains what was happening when Graham started wiping away tears.

John Berman discussed the case with CNN legal analysts Mark Geragos, Sunny Hostin and forensic scientist Lawrence Kobilinsky of the John Jay College of Criminal Justice.
